David Ahern 6e237d099f netlink: Relax attr validation for fixed length types 
Commit 28033ae4e0 ("net: netlink: Update attr validation to require
exact length for some types") requires attributes using types NLA_U* and
NLA_S* to have an exact length. This change is exposing bugs in various
userspace commands that are sending attributes with an invalid length
(e.g., attribute has type NLA_U8 and userspace sends NLA_U32). While
the commands are clearly broken and need to be fixed, users are arguing
that the sudden change in enforcement is breaking older commands on
newer kernels for use cases that otherwise "worked".

Relax the validation to print a warning mesage similar to what is done
for messages containing extra bytes after parsing.
